Default Which tires to buy?

I know it's controversial, but I need to ask. I've been running the Michelin Pilot Power's, and I really like them. The only thing I don't like is how quickly they wore out. I got 3500 miles out of them, which is not terrible, but at 12000 miles a year, that's alot of tires. Anyone have experience with the Pilot Road? It sounds like it would be what I'm looking for. I hate to give up the grip of these, but honestly, I'm not using all of it anyway. I've worn the center of my rear tire down to the seam, so it's clear that I do more touring than track days. I've also been told to run a 180 in the rear. Can anyone offer suggestions to either of these points? Thanks.
